Customized e-commerce tags in realtime multimedia content
Techniques described herein are directed to e-commerce tags in multimedia content. In an example, multimedia content is received that includes a representation of an item offered for sale by a merchant. A user profile of the viewer is determined. Identifying information including customized item details are generated based on the user profile. The identifying information is sent to a different application (on a same device or different device as the device that is playing the multimedia content), which allows for linkage of a merchant profile and user profile and enables payment for the item.
1. A method implemented by at least one server computing device of a service provider, the method comprising:
determining a user profile of a user consuming multimedia content displayed by a first application via a first user device;
based at least in part on the user profile, identifying a second user device associated with the user;
receiving an indication of user interaction with an interactive element of the multimedia content, wherein the interactive element comprises an e-commerce tag associated with an offer for sale of an item, and wherein the interactive element is overlaid or adjacent to a representation of the item displayed within the multimedia content during consumption by the user of the multimedia content; and
at least partly responsive to receiving the indication of user interaction and based at least in part on the user profile, causing presentation of a user interface via a second application executing on the second user device, wherein the user interface is configured to enable purchase of the item.
2. The method as claim 1 recites, wherein the first user device comprises a streaming device and the second user device comprises a mobile device.
3. The method as claim 1 recites, wherein determining the user profile is based at least in part on at least one of a device identifier of the first user device or user credentials used to access the multimedia content.
4. The method as claim 1 recites, further comprising, prior to receiving the indication of user interaction with the interactive element:
generating the interactive element; and
causing presentation of the interactive element via the first application, wherein causing presentation of the interactive element comprises determining at least one of (1) a time during playback of the multimedia content to cause presentation of the interactive element or (2) a location in the multimedia content to cause presentation of the interactive element.
5. The method as claim 1 recites, wherein the second application is associated with a payment service.
6. The method as claim 1 recites, wherein the first user device comprises a virtual reality device and the second application comprises a mobile device.
7. The method as claim 1 recites, wherein the user interface includes at least one of:
one or more prepopulated attributes of the item;
one or more purchase options; or
payment information from past transactions associated with the user.
8. A system comprising:
one or more processors; and
one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions executable by the one or more processors, wherein the instructions cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising:
determining a user profile of a user consuming multimedia content displayed by a first application via a first user device;
based at least in part on the user profile, identifying a second user device associated with the user;
receiving an indication of user interaction with an interactive element of the multimedia content, wherein the interactive element comprises an e-commerce tag associated with an offer for sale of an item, and wherein the interactive element is overlaid or adjacent to a representation of the item displayed within the multimedia content during consumption by the user of the multimedia content; and
at least partly responsive to receiving the indication of user interaction and based at least in part on the user profile, causing presentation of a user interface via a second application executing on the second user device, wherein the user interface is configured to enable purchase of item.
9. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the second application is associated with a payment service.
10. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the user profile includes a purchase history of the user, and wherein content of the user interface is based at least in part on at least on the purchase history.
11. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein content of the user interface is based at least in part on a geographic location of the first user device.
12. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the interactive element is associated with one or more of color, size, brand, availability, fulfillment option, or quantity of the item.
13. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the user interaction comprises one or more of selection of a link, selection of a quick response code (QR code), voice input, or gesture input.
14. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the user interaction comprises voice input, and wherein the voice input comprises a trigger word spoken when the interactive element is being displayed.
15. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein the first user device comprises a streaming device and the second user device comprises a mobile device.
16. The system as claim 8 recites, wherein determining the user profile is based at least in part on at least one of a device identifier of the first user device or user credentials used to access the multimedia content.
17. One or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions executable by one or more processors that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform acts comprising to perform acts comprising:
determining a user profile of a user consuming multimedia content displayed by a first application via a first user device;
based at least in part on the user profile, identifying a second user device associated with the user;
receiving an indication of user interaction with an interactive element of the multimedia content, wherein the interactive element comprises an e-commerce tag associated with an offer for sale of an item, and wherein the interactive element is overlaid or adjacent to a representation of the item displayed within the multimedia content during consumption by the user of the multimedia content; and
at least partly responsive to receiving the indication of user interaction and based at least in part on the user profile, causing presentation of a user interface via a second application executing on the second user device, wherein the user interface is configured to enable purchase of item.
18. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as claim 17 recites, wherein the user profile maps to a buyer profile stored by the second application.
19. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as claim 17 recites, wherein the user interaction comprises one or more of selection of a link, selection of a quick response code (QR code), voice input, or gesture input.
20. The one or more non-transitory computer-readable media as claim 17 recites, wherein the first user device comprises a streaming device and the second user device comprises a mobile device.
